Patriots vs. Raiders Wednesday injury report: Three cornerbacks among the sidelined

The New England Patriots entered Wednesday’s practice with a notable absence in their wide receiver unit, as Mack Hollins sat out with a calf injury sustained last week during the team’s 29-26 loss. The veteran wideout, who leads the team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards, exited the game in the third quarter and has since been listed as questionable for Sunday’s matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Meanwhile, the Patriots’ secondary faces a significant depth challenge, with three cornerbacks—Christian Gonzalez, Carlton Davis III, and Karon Prunty—also sidelined due to shoulder, neck, and hamstring injuries, respectively. Gonzalez has missed four consecutive practices with his shoulder issue, while Davis and Prunty were absent from last week’s session as well, raising concerns about the unit’s readiness for the upcoming game at Gillette Stadium.

On the Raiders’ side, wide receiver Jalen Nailor remains out after suffering a concussion, though the team’s injury report was otherwise dominated by limited participation rather than outright absences. Among the Patriots, running back Rhamondre Stevenson and defensive tackle Christian Barmore were among those practicing with restrictions, each dealing with knee and shoulder injuries, respectively.

Stevenson’s knee issue resurfaced after he left Sunday’s game early, while Barmore returned to action after missing three straight practices. The Patriots’ defensive line and secondary also saw several other players—including Morgan Moses, Charles Woods, and Craig Woodson—participate in limited drills due to various injuries.
